Several domestic and international flights have been delayed and cancelled due to the dense fog at Faisalabad and Multan airports. The halt in operations at the airports caused travelers difficulties. Whereas, flights for Saudi Arabia and other gulf states have also been affected.

The weather phenomenon created a mysterious-looking veil across the province as visibility reduced to near zero due to thick fog and smoke. The Met Office issued a severe weather warning, urged travelers to take all possible measures to avert any untoward incident and advised the citizens to avoid traveling unnecessarily.

Spokesperson of Atomic Energy Commission Pakistan denied the reports of smog-triggered closure of all Chashma Nuclear Power Plants (C1, C2, C3, C4), saying the tripping caused by technical fault in NTDC Transmission System. He added that restoration is in progress and it is expected to get full capacity in approximately 72 hours.

Earlier, it was reported that unprecedented dense smog caused seventeen power stations tripped in different parts of the country, causing 12-hour-long loadshedding as the collective power production was reduced by over 6,000 megawatts., and dense fog also led to closure of all Chashma Nuclear Power Plants (C1, C2, C3, C4).
